High Elevation Collection Lake County Cabernet Sauvignon

We had the most delightful dinner in LA at Goldie's, a hipster, farm to table, modern take on classic American, unshowy but cool restaurant. The food was delicious. The wine selection was painfully limited. Yet of the four red wines in all the world that made it onto this list, one was from Shannon Ridge Vineyards, a wonderful coincidence given we were dining with the spectacularly attractive couple, Michael and Lexie Shannon. Unlike the conversation, the wine was a little hollow, though serendipity was the theme of the night so it not have paired better with our evening.

Not bad butnot like cs

One of my favorite value wines. Smoother than butter left out on a summer day.

Awesome Cab. Hints of blackberry and cranberry. Had with beef stroganoff

Pucker up, this is a fruit bomb. Nice fruit up front and a smooth finish

Sweet but drinkable.

Incredibly smooth! Great pick by dad!

Ripe fruit, low acidity, black pepper,

Nutty, ripe cranberries, notes of black pepper and cedar

Just like all the Shannon wines I've had, great for the price.
